#12 Rising Pune Supergiant - Mahendra Singh Dhoni 64*(34) vs Kings XI Punjab in 2017
When the BCCI banned the Chennai Super Kings, Mahendra Singh Dhoni became a part of the Rising Pune Supergiant franchise. The Dhoni-led side did not make it to the play-offs in its first season. However, MS Dhoni made sure they finish the season on a high note. In their last league game against Kings XI Punjab at their adopted home Vizag, skipper Murali Vijay’s 59 and Gurkeerat Singh’s 51 helped KXIP post 172/7 in 20 overs.
RPS were reeling in their chase with the loss of Usman Khawaja, Ajinkya Rahane and George Bailey early in the innings. MS Dhoni came out to bat at number 5 and took the game to the final over where Pune required 22 off the last 6 balls. Dhoni whooped Axar Patel for 3 sixes and 1 four to finish the season in style.
